NW Mutual's Schutte: Diversification isn't dead, and '25 will prove it
Money Life with Chuck Jaffe - A podcast by Chuck Jaffe
Categories:
Brent Schutte, chief investment officer at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Co., says that the current stock market reminds him of the late 1990s -- with a super strong dollar, a few stocks driving the market while the others are mediocre, where the American market and economy are exceptional and more -- but as economic seasons changed, it was the rest of the market that thrived. That's what he sees happening again now, so he is preaching diversification, especially toward small-cap stocks but also with international investments and commodities, as a way of growing and protecting a portfolio in 2025. In The Book Interview, financial columnist and historian Rodney Brooks discusses “The Rise and Fall of the Freedman’s Savings Bank and It’s Lasting Socio-Economic Impact on Black America,” and Eric Schoenstein, portfolio manager and chief investment officer at Jensen Investment Management discusses quality investing in The Market Call.
